President Barry (Bear) Lee Liberal was elected in 2008. The first Mollkin American president. The OFTL forces still claimed that Mollkins were animals and could not be in government or have any rights other than those of a farm animal.
He ended the 7 gulf wars President Thrush had started and put the money into art. He spent billions on orchestras for small towns. Hiring locals to learn to play tubas, violins and such. The young were quick to gravitate to this.
After a year and a half the public coffers were empty and all his art programs were abandoned.
